"During the recent CAT PORTRAITS Pie Rt CUIL 'of Did the photographer say, "Watch the birdie'? This command ought to mean something to a cat, but, as a matter of fact, these poses were obtained by dangling a bri T is natural for an amateur pho- tographer, according to his tastes and interests, to become intrigued with one kind of picture subject: animals, machinery, trees, sky- scrapers, wild life, marine views, and what not. The result, often, is that he finds himself pursuing @ fascinating hobby within a hobby-- searching for and photographing in- teresting types of his favorite pic- ture subject. One of the most enjoyable and challenging of one-subject hobbies is making portraits of «its. You soon learn that the mature cat is an animal of many expressions, and that he rarely fails to reward you with an interesting one. You dis- cover, also, that cats have indi- viduality, even those of the same breed. Consequently, in making cat portraits you obtain a variety of distinctive studies. Sometimes--and this is the chal- lenging part of cat photography-- you need something more than pho- tographic skill to be successful. When it comes to posing for the camera, the feline is often a per- yerse creature. Dogs beyond the puppy stage are generally obedient, but, to keep a cat in front of the lens, it is usually necessary to en- tertain him. Even then, Thomas is likely to "take a walk" out of the view finder, with complete indif- ference to what you say to him or about him. He has a mind of his own. Hence, there will be times when you will need Christian pa- tience and an assistant to recover "Somebody to See You!" If everybody with somethine to interest you should come and ting your bell, what a nuisance it would be! Think of the swarming, jostling crowd, the stamp- ing of feet on your porch and carpets! Every week we know of many callers who come to see you. 'They never jangle the bell -- they don't take up your whole day trying to get your attention. Instead they do it in a way that is most considerate of your privacy and your convenience. They Ad- vertise in vour newspaper! in this way you have only to listen to those you know at a glance have something that interests you. They make it short. too, so you can gather auickly just what you want to know. You can receive and hear them all without noise or confusion in a very few minutes. In fairness to yourself look over ALL the advertise- ments. "The smallest and largest--you never can be sure which one will tell something you really want to know. ght object near the camera. the cat. Especially outdoors, when Thomas is in a lively mood, you may find that the best you can get is 9/10 backyard and 1/10 cat. On the other hand, Thomas loves to lie in the sun, especially after a good meal, and then, usually, you find him a most tractable model. Inside the house the chances are always good because here a cat is generally quieter and disappearing acts can be prevented. Here, too, you canmore easily arrangea contrasting background. The surest way to catch a pose is to use a flash bulb. Flood- light lamps seem to cause most cats to lie down and bask. Cats, however, being inquisitive, like to look out of windows for tong periods, giving you a chance to creep up on them and snap a good picture by daylight. A most useful "accessory before the fact" for cat pictures is a por- trait attachment over your regu- lar lens permitting close-ups within arm's length. But, if you do not use a portrait attachment, be sure your fo- cus is correct so that the image of the cat will be quite sharp. Then you can mask out the surrounding part of the negative to obtain a big- image enlargement as in the pic- tures shown above. Remember that the typical physi- cal characteristics of cats are their whiskers and the liquid gleam in their eyes. The one needs a contrast- ing background; the other, it must be confessed, needs luck with the light reflections. If you succeed in revealing both, you are a good cat photographer. 120 JOHN VAN GUILDER. One luen kG BARRISTER -- SOLICITOR NOTARY PUBLIC Bank of Nova Scotia Building 'HAILEYBURY. ONT .
